Peregrine Expands Automotive range
Peregrine Semiconductor, founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, introduces two new UltraCMOS RF switches that expand its existing portfolio of solutions for automotive applications.
Peregrine's PE423422 and PE423641 are the newest components to join the PE42359 in meeting the AEC-Q100 requirements for Grade 2, meaning qualification for operation in the temperature range of -40 to 105degC.
The PE423422 and PE423641 are designed for automotive infotainment and traffic safety applications, such as multimode compenser modules for infotainment systems and emergency communication systems.
"From GPS navigation systems to automatic driving assistance programs, today's automobiles demand an increasing amount of RF semiconductor content," says Kinana Hussain, director of product marketing at Peregrine Semiconductor. "Our entire automotive product portfolio is well suited to handle the demands of the rigorous automotive environment. Peregrine's automotive products deliver exceptional ESD protection and the repeatability and reliability of the UltraCMOS manufacturing process."
Peregrine Semiconductor has an established history of working with automotive original design manufacturers. In November 2014, Peregrine announced its acceptance as a technical committee member on the Automotive Electronics Council (AEC)-the organisation that provides common part-qualification and quality-system standards, such as the AEC-Q100, for the automotive electronics industry.
